One Sentence Summary: Aaron Nola's shaky season continued and the Phillies couldn't figure out Diamondbacks' pitcher Zac Gallen in this 4-3 defeat.
What It Means: For the record, I told my wife, "They should take Nola out here," following the fifth inning and before he gave up two runs in the bottom of the sixth.
What Happened: The Phillies took a quick 1-0 lead in the first when Harrison Bader drew a lead-off walk and Kyle Schwarber doubled him home. Bryce Harper's groud out moved Schwarber to third, and he came home on J.T. Realmuto's sacrifice fly to give the Phillies a 2-0 lead. Nola immediately gave back a run in the bottom of the first and the Diamondbacks tied it up in the bottom of the third on a Ketel Marte single. The Phillies would take a 3-2 lead in the fourth on Alec Bohm's solo home run, his 10th of the season. That was to be all the scoring the offense could muster, and the two runs charged to Nola in the sixth would be the difference in this game. Gallen pitched seven strong innings, earning the win.
Featured Card: I've got nothing. I'll use this space to pay tribute to Rafael Lantigua, a big-leaguer with the Phillies for two games in the Dodgers series, called up to replace an injured Edmundo Sosa and then sent back down when Alec Bohm was activated. Lantigua has played nine seasons in the minor leagues and I sincerely hope he gets another shot to actually make his major league debut. For the record, he wore #19 for his two games with the club.
